MImbres Bat Bowl Replica

Sold out
US$85.00

The now extinct Mimbres Culture (circa 200 to 1150 A.D.) is best known for the wonderful pictures they painted upon small to medium sized ceramic bowls. A popular theme was that of the bat. Several different varieties and styles of this subject have been recovered form historical sites and ruins. This reproduction bowl is a copy of one of those renditions. At Starling Black Studio we strive to make realistic appearing replications of these bowls. Authentic bowls are few and extremely expensive if you indeed can find one for sale. Most of us must take a road trip to a distant archeological museum to even see these pieces of antiquity. If you love archeology and have an appreciation for the rawness of the primitive arts, then I believe you will not be disappointed with the acquisition of “Bat in Flight Bowl.” Thank you for looking.
